  1. couldnt set the deault save location error


    Hey, I am trying to change in the storage settings where content is new saved to my D drive. But it comes up with this error "We couldn`t set your default save location" The operation did not complete successfully. Try again in a bit. The error code is 0x80070005, in case you need it"

    I took owner of the windowsapps folder as well, tried to rename it but it says "its open in another file or program"?

    :)

    I fixed it, by removing all my "d:\game_installs" and Steam_directory off the drive, formatting the drive, and then changing location of windows 10 default apps. it took about 2 hrs to move everything :S theres gotta be an easier way to manipulate microsoft apps and folders than formatting a drive?

    Location setting

    Hi,



    This issue could occur due to incorrect location settings or it would depend on your IP address. We suggest you to check the location settings of your PC, and check if it helps. Here are the steps:

    • Click the Start button, and select Settings.
    • Go to Privacy, and choose Location.
    • Make sure that the Location service is On.


    If issue persists, then it has something to do with your IP address. It’s because the location detected depends on the location set on your IP address.



    Let us know how it goes.

    Photographs saved in camera roll not showing location

    Hello

    I, too, have lost this particular functionality.

    I have the 950. At first, the location was saved with photos, but no longer.

    I have reviewed all the privacy and location settings I can think of. Everything is enabled. I have tried the soft reset suggested by Jose, and that has made no difference.

    Here's the settings I've checked:

    • Privacy Settings
      • Location Settings
        • Location = "on"
        • Relevant Apps set to access location:
          • Blink
          • Camera
          • Cortana
          • Lumia Creative Studio
          • Lumia Motion Data
      • Camera Settings
        • Let apps use my camera = "on"
      • Background Apps Settings
        • Windows Camera = "On"
    I can't find anything else that affects the camera and its access to location data.

    Can anyone help?
